Welcome aboard

Dear Friends,

We are very fortunate to be a part of this beloved community, and we are committed to providing meaningful experiences that bring our friends and the most engaged supporters of Equality Florida closer together, both at home and abroad. That’s why we’re excited to announce an extraordinary invitation-only journey in collaboration with two incredible organizations, The Our Fund Foundation and SunServe.

This remarkable program has been uniquely curated in partnership with Transcend Cruises and is available only to invitees and their guests. During this extraordinary journey, we’ll explore the heart of the Swiss Alps from the incredible Victoria Jungfrau Resort in Interlaken before boarding our exclusively chartered floating hotel, The Gentleman, for a scenic cruise from Basel to Düsseldorf during the best time of year to cruise Europe’s rivers. Guests may opt to extend their stay for two additional nights at The Conservatorium Hotel, a luxurious and exclusive property in the heart of Amsterdam, before returning home. 

This experience is virtually all-inclusive, and our partners at Transcend Cruises have arranged for us:

 

  • 2-Nights at the five-star Victoria Jungfrau Resort Interlaken with breakfast daily
  • 5-Nights aboard our fully chartered floating hotel, The Gentlemanincluding:
    • All excursions, including gratuities to expert guides and drivers
    • Unlimited Wi-Fi
    • All meals aboard The Gentleman 
    • Unlimited premium open bar
    • Exceptional entertainment and private events.
  • Arrival & departure airport transfers
  • All gratuities to drivers, expert guides, and shipboard crew

A robust enrichment series of panel conversations and events with regional trailblazers in the LGBTQ+ communities we’ll visit.

We would be honored to host you on this timeless and unparalleled journey as we embrace the region’s breathtaking beauty, romance, culture, food, and wine. When you reserve by Friday, April 25th, guests will receive a complimentary pre-night in Zurich (August 12, 2025).

Prices start at just $3,999 per person, representing an incredible value compared to traditional river cruise experiences, so we expect this journey to sell out quickly.  Also, our guests will appreciate knowing that a portion of this sailing proceeds will support Equality Florida’s mission, while an average of $1,200 per stateroom, dependent on the confirmed stateroom category, will be *tax-deductible.

We encourage you to contact our partners at Transcend Cruises for more information and to book your participation at 773-351-4004 or via email at Sales@Transcend.Cruises.

 

Bon Voyage!
